Well, this takes retro to a whole new level.

I'd love to post some big inline images, but tooki would probably take away my admin privileges

I hope they remake the movie Bullit with the new Charger and Mustangs.

rickey939 · Dec 21, 2005, 10:02 AM

Badass.

Well, just use your admin privileges to edit the title of the thread, add `jpg orgy' to it and start posting those images

But the new charger sucks.

It has 4 doors, it's waaayyyy too long, and the hood and trunk are short. I hate it. It's NOTHING like what a charger should be. The current 'charger' should be renamed coronet, because that's what it looks like and is designed after.

EnemyTerritoryish · Dec 21, 2005, 10:10 AM

But yes, this new challenger is BADASS, and I will want one if they make it. Dodge hasn't made a v8 RWD pony car in.... jesus... 1978-79 with the dodge aspen with the 360. But that sucked. The last REAL ponycar they made was in 1974, with the E-bodies.

EnemyTerritoryish · Dec 21, 2005, 10:14 AM

The exterior is perfect... I'd only add the option to get a bit more chrome, and a woodgrained interior, and call that the challenger SE.

Just like the real challenger SEs. It should also be able to be individually optioned out, like the new mini. That way you can choose the sport sideview mirrors, the high impact colors, the color keyed bumpers, different wheels, etce tc etc.

BTW, that dash cluster will never make it into production. It needs a hood over the top of the gauges to shield glare. Every concept I've ever seen like that always gets a hood over the gauges for production.

Woah A Coupe!

Dakar · Dec 21, 2005, 10:52 AM

It needs the paint job from the General Lee.

cmeisenzahl · Dec 21, 2005, 10:55 AM

I love it! Just add a pistol grip shifter and I'm in!

sek929 · Dec 21, 2005, 11:48 AM

Thank GOD they made it a coupe!

Dark Helmet · Dec 21, 2005, 11:49 AM

Pretty cool but looks to much like the new Mustang.

jasonsRX7 · Dec 21, 2005, 12:25 PM

I like the new Mustang better. To me, the new Mustang looks retro without looking old. That Challenger just looks old. Not bad, just old.

olePigeon · Dec 21, 2005, 12:27 PM

OMG! Badass!

All we need is a resurrected Camero, I'd be in heaven.

ThinkInsane · Dec 21, 2005, 01:14 PM

That's pretty sweet. I took a look at the new Chargers the other night, and I think they look like ass. This Challenger concept is pretty sweet. I'd buy one.

It's retro, and looks like the old Challanger.

The general lee was a 69 Charger. The challenger was a totally different chassis and bodystyle. Literally nothing except the engine about these cars were similar.

So no, it doesn't need a paintjob from the general lee. That doesn't make any sense whatsoever. You may as well have said it needed a mustang or camaro emblem.

Why is it so hard for people to spell CAMARO correctly? It's not like it's a car that you never see... it isn't rare or anything. Listen to how you say it. CA-MAR-O. Not CA-MER-O.

The rear view mirrors are horrid, and the front end looks like a bad remake of the 'mako' concept corvette cars of the 1960s. Blech. That thing would fit right in with this:

Welcome to 1991! Yeah baby!

Which looks a MILLION times better than this:

Hell, you can't even open the side windows all the way!

What kind of design house commits crap like this to paper/computer screen. and then what kind of company commits factory time to making it?!?!

Oh yeah, it didn't sell well for a reason. That's quite obvious.

Dark Helmet · Dec 21, 2005, 10:14 PM

That looks like an old saturn or something.

I know! What a piece of ****! That must mean the car sucks!

Are you mentally retarded? Because I'm pretty sure I've explained the benefits of having a much larger door opening with better view thanks to curved glass which is impossible to roll down so only a portion rolls down many many times. So either you can't remember jack **** (duh you work at a factory duh huh huh push the button) or you're a retard (factory worker).

What kind of design house commits crap like this to paper/computer screen.

Ital Design. Guigario. He's one of the most successful italian industrial designers of the past half a century, penning all sorts of great cars. Some fast. Some cheap. All better looking than GM's products. Course, you wouldn't be privy to this sort of information because you probably don't read industry magazines like

http://www.carstylingmag.com/carstylingmag/

But ****! I think I've told you about that before too! So either you can't remember jack **** (duh you work at a factory duh huh huh push the button) or you're a retard (factory worker).

Oh yeah, it didn't sell well for a reason. That's quite obvious.

And you're trying to derail a thread for a reason. That's quite obvious.

Quit trolling KILBEY. It's pathetic that in a musclecar thread you suddenly attack my car only to try to get a rise out of me. You are a pathetic little man working at a factory. HAHA!

Uh.... how? It's red.... and.... um... it has 4 wheels? You know, now that you mention it looks kinda like a red version of a model T. Or a red version of a corvette. Or a red version of a VW beetle. Or a red version of a acura NSX. Or a red version of....

Uh..... ....

They both are the same color? I suppose these all look the same to you also:

As for the stupid windows.... whatever. Lots of cars have windows like that. It's just that they're usually super expensive and not a good idea for daily transportation. It's quite nice actually, I wish more cars had that style of window as you get a lot better visibility because of all the glass, entering and exiting the car is easier thanks to the larger door opening, and it's a lot quieter.

Nope, those don't.

Actually, your post looks more like spam.

Maybe Leftlanenews.com should have it's own forum.

Kevin · Dec 22, 2005, 05:57 AM

Eh I am kinda glad he posted it in here. I don't go there and Hadn't heard about the new car.

Nick only seems to post cars in here that he thinks we would be interested in.

And this is one of them.

Pendergast · Dec 22, 2005, 06:07 AM

Sissies.

That's a real car:

Dude, you're gay so you should be able to know about style and all that. Saturn= no style. Italian body penned by Guigario= style.

Dakar · Dec 22, 2005, 08:27 AM

You don't see a slight resemblence?

Personally, the General Lee just looks like a really stretched out version.

TurboMac · Dec 22, 2005, 08:35 AM

Does anyone remember Mad-Max with Mel Gibson. In that movie they took cars from that era and made them look futuristic. Some of these new/old concepts feel like the ones in that movie! It's funny how thinkgs come full circle.
